Giants center Weston Richburg became the first player to be ejected from a game for picking up two separate unsportsmanlike conduct penalties under the new league rule requiring disqualification for such offenses.
The latter of the two penalties Richburg incurred has now led to a fine as well.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, Richburg has been fined $12,000 for taunting Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman. Richburg is appealing the fine.
Richburg was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct for loudly and profanely (the interaction was clearly heard on the TV broadcast) disagreeing with a holding call against him. Then in the fourth quarter, Richburg blocked Norman from behind on a catch and run by Odell Beckham. He then turned around and stood over Norman, which drew the second flag and the ejection.
Richburg felt the umpire was out to get him. Now the league is out to get in his wallet.
